Could some kind lister help me please? I am trying to locate a family history society for Kingston. I understand that there are two Kingstons in Victoria, and the one I am interested in is in country Victoria. Am I directing my query to the correct list please? I would much appreciate any advice. TIA Janet in Sydney

Hello Janet, Looking at http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~surreal/victowns/K.html there are currently two Kingstons in Victoria. One is a Melbourne suburb, and the other is near Creswick. Not sure if Creswick has a FHG but someone on the Goldfields list may be able to tell you which one may cover creswick. There is a Creswick Historical Society at http://amol.org.au/guide/instn.asp?ID=V090 Hope this helps Cheers Peter ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ At 06:39 AM 28/10/2004 +1000, you wrote: >Could some kind lister help me please?

Hello Janet I see your original query has been answered. I have some family born in and around Kingston. My g grandfather, Richard Joseph Sheehan married Maria Cecelia Ellis and they had a number of children born in the district. If there is any connection please get in touch. I have been concentrating more on my Bendigo lot so haven't done a lot of research on this line yet. Good luck with your search Rosemary in Brisbane
